A hard-working animal rescuer who is feeding 80 cats

The needs of rescue workers are great and we recognize this fact. To care for multiple cats, find suitable homes, good vet care, food, etc. is costly. From time to time you will see some posts come up to ask for donations for a cause. It is YOUR responsibility to check out these solicitors to the best of your ability. More often, you will see pleas from individuals asking for money to be sent directly to them to assist with veterinary bills. Some come up with slick websites, others just have heartwrenching stories. In each of these cases, the poster is allowed ONE thread, to be placed in Cats SOS.
In either case, if you feel compelled to donate money ask for references, phone numbers, call around the area and find out if this is a legitimate cause or a scam. For personal pleas, get the veterinarian’s contact information and send money directly to the veterinarian to help with bills for that particular cat. If that information is not available, you have the answer if the plea is legitimate or a scam.
Be very careful before you send any money: no matter how effective the plea is, check it out first before opening your wallet.

For the record: The vet at Century Vet is out of compliance with the State Vet Licensing Board because of lack of continuing education credits, but the Century Vet does have a website & does exist, as does the Kris Kelly Foundation.
